Today we will re-visit 2008 and 2009, just for the fun of it. In 2008 I was in the middle of creating Santa Claus's similar to this one I created in November of that year ...
obviously my picture-taking abilities needed a
LOT of work!!
I also did a number of this type of beaded buttons...
And, just for a change of pace, I even stenciled a wall!
I've done this same wall twice. My friends had it
done once and a number of years later wanted to
re-paint and asked me to recreate the original.
2009 marked the beginning of a year-long
art doll round robin collaboration and in June
I sent out this poor nekkid little doll..
AND, through the wonders of modern technology,
here she is as she looked when she returned
home to me, approx. a year later!
Her name is Shudayra!!
If you want to see further details, have a look at my post found HERE.
In August of 2009 I was hard at work making a ring bearer's pillow that ended up looking like this...
Today's quote is from Mel Robbins..."Don't tell people your dreams. Show them"
Love that you have turned your hand to such an eclectic mix of creative projects Mary Anne! It certainly makes life interesting!! Particularly love the stencilling and the doll! Christine xx
ReplyDeleteMA Dear your many talents continue to bring me great joy. Looking back at your creations is very inspiring. Lots of interesting links to give added ideas to the ever growing lists of “someday”. As for the quote...maybe I am missing “dreams”. JOYful July <3

ReplyDeleteIt's great to see the many things you have been doing over the years! Look forward to more soon? Thanks for the links.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun creations. Shudayra sure had a transformation! What a fun idea that was.
ReplyDeleteWe did several art doll round robins and it was great fun. Unfortunately postage costs had to put an end to it.
DeleteThey are all great! I remember your ring bearers pillow and the doll transformation is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI am in awe of the doll and her journey (I did flip back through your posts).
